Jardin

The trip to Jardin, our next destination, was a long (and sometimes quite scary 🙃) one: The only mountain road up to Jardin was not only very bumpy, but also superduper narrow at parts (interestingly, it seemed to be most narrow where the descent next to the road way the steepest?!). But the driver certainly knew the road well and soothed us all the way with classic colombian music - certainly a very good mixture and we arrived in Jardin with zero deaths from heart attacks and noone jumping off the bus 💪🏼
Jardin is another colourful town in the mountains and another town which is said to be among the most beautiful ones in Colombia. It is bigger than Salento but - to our opinion - lacks its charm. However, the town was really busy with local tourists and the central plaza (which is overlooked by a massive church btw) was humming with music and the sound and laughter of the locals having fun 💃🏻 so we spent the two nights at the plaza, watching monkeys and enjoying the scenes. Apart from that (and many beautiful birds flying around in the Jardin area), there‘s not a lot to do there anyways :)Read more
